Sporting striker with 7 goals seen as Rui Borges’ favourite | OneFootball

Between Luis Suárez and Fotis Ioannidis, Carlos Saleiro still doesn't have a favorite and even admits that they can play simultaneously at the front of the lions' attack. However, in exclusive statements to Leonino, the former Sporting forward shows belief that Rui Borges may have already chosen his 'favorite'.

"It's not an easy choice. At the moment, we are still at the beginning of the season. If we were talking about transfer value, they are practically the same amounts that Sporting invested. Therefore, we are talking about two players for 'one perch'. But, in my view, they could play together," he begins by saying.

Despite Fotis Ioannidis' desire to assume the starting position, Carlos Saleiro believes that Luis Suárez is currently at an advantage: "Looking at the characteristics of the player himself, Suárez starts as the main bet, both could be bets."

The former under-23 international for Portugal mentions that both provide guarantees to Rui Borges: "We have two excellent strikers, two excellent players who can offer a lot to the Club and mean many goals. But, within Rui Borges' style of play, I believe Suárez is the first option and because he has also justified it. Fotis is a slightly different striker, and that's why I say they can both play in the 11 in the short and medium term, as a resource," added the former 'number 9' of the lions.
